Unless i don’t remember correctly whats already there, i think the basics would be nice to add(hair color/length, eyes, etc). But specifically i think maybe weapons like someone else mentioned would be cool. Maybe accessories that hide weapons as well? I don’t think i’ve seen that anywhere yet, but it is a fun concept. Plus, its a mafia game, so i think it’d fit the vibe : D

Thanks for the feedback!
A mask option is interesting, I might play with that - it may be something I can go back and work in after the story is finished - then I can find some better places to make it work.
I’m hoping these next few chapters will pop off for firearms moments as well

More customization sounds great - I will definitely being going back to layer those in when I am revising!

Happy Monday all! Been a little bit since I’ve checked in - summer has officially begun!
Got a curiosity - What is everyone’s favorite character and why? (Please use spoiler tags!)
Ya’ll have a great day!

Quick question! Would it be helpful for me to include some “Chapter Skip” options with preselected stats for beta testing purposes? I’m not sure how exactly that’d look, but I’m open to examples if other authors have tried this!

A lot of people like it but I don’t ever use the chapter skip options myself

Looking to be done writing chapter 5 this week - then it’s time to draft up chapter 6!

Little update: Chapter 5 might be the single longest chapter so far, accounting for roughly 25% of the words written for Crime Families of Aplista! Moving toward the target date of end of the month for chapters 5&6 - how time flies!

We made it past chapter 6, ya’ll! Working on chapter 7 and 8. I’ve had some issues getting chapters 5 and 6 uploaded to the demo, which is something I will figure out.
Happy December!

Chapter 1-6 are now live on the demo!! 
Please keep in mind the following:
- This is a work in progress, so there are likely to be errors, notes, or other quirks - please be sure to notify me of anything you catch so I can make fixes! (Much appreciated!) This is not the final product; anything is subject to be adjusted, changed, added, or removed.
- Spoiler tags! Please be sure to use spoiler tags when talking about the narrative content and results of your choices so that everyone gets a fair first time experience.
- Missing content/Placeholders: I’ve been focusing on the main narrative, but I am also developing the operations aspect of the game (where you make choices to influence your own business), as well as some other flavor and branching options.
- If you have any ideas to offer, please feel free to share! I’d love to give them a look.
As always, thank you for taking the time to try out this story, and I look forward to your feedback!
I’m hard at work getting chapters 7 and 8 together and look forward to sharing more soon!

Hmm, few more errors than I realized. I’ll be reuploading this week. The most hilarious is a loop that keeps a fight scene going on indefinitely, which was totally NOT intended!

Interesting - let me do a retest on that!
Should be updated.
